Priorities

 

Exercise 1:

1.     1. Go to any department in any of the CDC building

2.     2. Count the people there

3.      3.   Close your eyes

4.        Think

Now, how many people there are either Management, Supervisory or from the Ranks?

Exercise 2:

1.        Repeat Exercise 1

Now, will it not be proper to assume that the Ranks  out-number  the rest of the gaggle of people in any particular departments/divisions?

It goes a little something like this:

Get the picture now?

Ok, may I ask if you are going to make a very important decision for the welfare of the people inside a company which will you rather please first?

Management?

Supervisors?

Ranks?

 Herein lies now the problem:

The priority of management now is to push through with the transition of membership from SSS to GSIS. Management can afford this, some supervisors could barely afford this, the Ranks will clearly be at a very big disadvantage. 

Why don't we shift now to a much more urgent and compelling priority.

We already have an Authority to Implement (ATI) from GCG which covers the following:

1. Step increment for every three years in the same position

2. Payment of the ABI's which we should have receive now

3. Retro pay of the PERA

(if there's more to add, put it here)

Let's take the case of the CIAC employees.

Before I went to the GSIS Enforced seminar on that far-away-land of Nayong Pilipino, I talked to somebody from CIAC and ask this;

"GSIS na ba kayo?"

He said no, that they are still with SSS but will eventually move on to GSIS. And that THEIR MANAGEMENT (take note: THEIR MANAGEMENT) conducted a survey for the shift and an overwhelming decision is to stay with SSS.

Lately, I asked another CIAC fella the same question. Answer: "Mayroon pong nanatili sa SSS, yun po namang mga bata pa ay nag GSIS na." (If you could, please do try to contact any of the CIAC employees to verify this do so please)

So there you go, THEIR MANAGEMENT let THEIR EMPLOYEES decide THEIR FATE.

Could not our management do the same? Could it change its priorities? Could it not make a better and popular decision beneficial to the majority?
